Bringing up the calendar on start-up

I've got iCal set to open automatically at start-up, but it doesn't help me remember to look at the fool thing. I'd rather not have to set alarms or email alerts for every event - is there no way to bring the calendar up automatically for the not-so-focused?

wadmalaw,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Make sure that System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items>iCal is not set to "Hide."

¿How do I set the calendar to start week on Monday and not Sunday in my iphone?

¿How do I set the calendar to start week on Monday and not Sunday in my iphone?

The jewish calendar does not have names for the days of the week. The week ends with the holy Sabbath (Saturday) and therefore the Sunday is the first days after Sabbath (Yom Rishon), the Monday the second day after Sabbath (Yom Sheini), etc.
The Christians believe that Christ was raised on the first days of the week (Mathew 28:1, et al) AFTER the Sabbath was over. So their holy day is the Sunday and the working week starts on a Monday.
The business days in the western world are numbered starting with the Monday as day number 1 (Timetables of Airlines, Calendars, even Microsoft Windows...).
Unfortunately in the United States religious freedom extends to a level which is not understood easily by the rest of the world. Since the MAC OS X allows to change the first day from a Sunday to a Monday, one might wonder why Apple decided to give the iPhone a jewish touch.
It could be supposed that this is the way of the least resistance. Only few complain about this issue, but if it were the other way around a lot of people would complain...
PS: I agree with the others here: It is very, very annoying and more than once I entered an appointment into the wrong day...;-)

How do you get the calendar to start on Monday?

How do you get the calendar to start on Monday rather than the default Sunday ?

Is there a way to change the Calendar to start on Monday while retaining your International location (i.e. Canada)?

I don't want to change the International setting on my iPhone 4 to anything other than Canada, so is there a way to set the first day of my week to Monday while retaining the international setting?

I too am looking for the exact same thing. Help anyone !

How do I get my Calendar to start the week fr Monday instead of Sunday?

On my Macbook Pro, I am able to set my Calendar to start on Monday which appears farthest left. However, on my iPhone (and iPad), the Calendar starts on the default Sunday and I don't see any settings to change that. Can anyone help?

Thanks for the tip, Mactagg. Yes, it's infuriating.
My settings are for Singapore and we follow the British system, yet the Calendar still starts from Sunday which makes me wonder why Apple decided that the UK Calendar should start from Monday...
True, although there are plenty of good stuff about Apple, it seems that perhaps some middle manager somewhere has screwed certain features up such as Bluetooth which is horrible but that's for another story and thread...
I will still stick to Singapore settings as it affects my phone number settings.

Calendar year start

Hi,
can somebody please tell me in which table to look for the
calendar year start and end dates??
Also please tell me where to look in the application also
thanks a lot

Hi jansi, thanks for the reply.
So first_period_end_date is the column in the table pay_payrolls_f which defines the calendar year end date.
So can you tell me which is the calendar year start date.
Thank you.

Calendar weeks start on monday

is anyone else having weird small problems like my calendar week starts on monday (all my other calendars are set to start on sunday) and i cant find any setting on my phone to change this. also i'm not sure how long its been like this but i recently noticed my native weather app has an icon that says 23° and sunny. i'm pretty sure when i first got this phone t said 75° and sunny (y does it seems that i have a celsius icon when my degrees are set to fahrenheit? ) i guess this isnt a big deal, but little things keep adding up to make me think i have a less-than-perfect 16gb iphone (as in it actually works less well than my previous 8gig iphone).

Man, I love the search function... lol
I had to reset and reboot my iPhone and wondered why suddenly the Calendar was starting on Monday. Forgot all about this tip.
Thanks Jim.

I can't stop Calendar from starting at start-up since Mountain Lion upgrade.

I upgraded to Mountain Lion a few days ago and since then my Calendar app starts up whenever I start my MBP.
I have checkec my system preferences for the account login applications, and it's not checked. I also check the Calendar app settings and it doesn't say to automatically start up anywhere.
Is this a new feature of this OS? how can I change this?
Thanks!

Nope.
The problem is this: applications that are running (e.g. chrome, spotify) start up again after restarting the macbook even though I unchecked the box to 'reopen windows at startup'. Furthermore, the Calendar application starts automatically at startup even if this wasn't open when the macbook was shut down.
So, 1) running apps restart no matter the startup settings I use, and 2) the Calendar app (this one only) starts at startup even if it's not running at shutdown.
Other suggestions?

I am having problems gettting my mail to work ... Mac telling me that my start up disk id full and to delete some files to free up space ... have done this but when i open mail from the dock it just brings up the colour wheel and nothing happening

I am having problems gettting my mail to work ... Mac telling me that my start up disk id full and to delete some files to free up space ... have done this but when i open mail from the dock it just brings up the colour wheel and nothing happening ... it shows when you right click on the mail icon that " application not responding"

If your hard drive is getting full, you need to free up, at least, 20 GBs of space on your iMac's hard drive.
If your Mac is running a fairly recent version of OS X, here are some general guidelines.
Follow some of my tips for cleaning out, deleting and archiving data from your Mac's internal hard drive.
Have you emptied your iMac's Trash icon in the Dock?
If you use iPhoto, iPhoto has its own trash that needs to be emptied, also.
If you use Apple Mail app, Apple Mail also has its own trash area that needs to be emptied, too!
Other things you can do to gain space.
Delete any old or no longer needed emails and/or archive to disc, flash drives or external hard drive, older emails you want to save.
Look through your Documents folder and delete any type of old useless type files like "Read Me" type files.
Again, archive to disc, flash drives, ext. hard drives or delete any old documents you no longer use or immediately need.
Download an app called OnyX for your version of OS X.
When you install and launch it, let it run the automatic ans S.M,A.R.T. tests, then go to the cleaning and maintenance tabs and run the tabs that have the ability to clean out all web browser cache files, web browser histories, system cache files, delete old error log files.
Typically, iTunes and iPhoto libraries are the biggest users of HD space.
move these files/data off of your internal drive to the external hard drive and deleted off of the internal hard drive.
If you have any other large folders of personal data or projects, these should be archived or moved, also, to the optical discs, flash drives or external hard drive and then either archived to disc and/or deleted off your internal hard drive.
Good Luck!

How can I create a new calendar that starts the week on monday?

Excel can do it, but I really like the template for calendars in numbers. That calendar is for printing it, so i don't need any special functionalities, only the template, with blank cells i can hand-write in.
Thanks!

Hi And95es,
The Calendar template is very clever. Changing it to start on Monday would be a huge task. Here is an idea for a non-automatic calendar. Start with a table for month and year. Hide the table name if you like.
A1 is a pop-up menu to choose a month. Type the year in B1. I am trying to come up with a formula to show the day of the week for that month and year in B2. This is because you will have to type a 1 into the correct day in the calendar table to generate dates for the whole month.
Create an outline calendar like this:
A2 contains the number 1
B2=A2+1 and fill right
A4=G2+1
B4=A4+1 and Fill Right.
Now select Row 4 and copy.
Paste into every second row below.
Format the table to make cells big enough to write in. Save as Template because you are about to make a calendar and you will need the template for next month.
Type a 1 into the cell that is the first of that month. Now clear contents of cells you don't need.
It would be handy to have a formula to show weekday for the first of the month. Not essential!
Regards,
Ian.

I am trying to find out if I can change a setting of the calendar in my iPhone. When I view calendar, in month, I would like to view it with the starting day of the week being Monday, not Sunday. Is it possible to make this change? SS

Hello SMEvans32
You can use iCloud to share the Calendar, that way she will always be up to date on that particular section of your work calendar. If you want to use iCloud, I would recommend backing up so you have a safe copy of your data.

The calendar week view on my iphone 4s starts on a Sunday. I am synching with outlook on my computer which starts the week view on a Monday which I prefer. How do I change my iphone calendar view to start the week on a Monday?

The calendar week view on my iphone 4s starts on a Sunday. I am synching with outlook on my computer (pc) which starts the week view on a Monday which I prefer. How do I change my iphone calendar view to start the week on a Monday? I am in Australia.
I have just noticed the other discussion points - mine is set to Australia.
Dear Apple - as the day that the week starts on can depend on country and religion - how about making it an option that the user can change????

I believe the week view on the iPhone is handled by the Region settings in the phone. I am not aware of any other manner to change it, as you can with Outlook.

Is Windows 8.1 Update 2 bringing back the start menu?

Was browsing group policies in Windows 10 GPMC, and discovered something new... Start Menu layout. But the requirement is "At least Windows 8.1 Update 2". So is 8.1 Update 2 bringing back the start menu? This could change before the final release
of Windows 10 obviously, and they might have originally planned to bring it back in 8.1, before deciding to make it a big deal for Windows 10, but an interesting discovery nonetheless.

Unfortunately, there will be no Windows 8.1 Update 2. If you want the new Start Menu design, you'll need to upgrade to Windows 10.
"...customers can expect that we’ll use our already existing monthly update process to deliver more frequent improvements along with the security updates normally provided as part of “Update Tuesday.” So despite rumors and speculation, we are not planning
to deliver a Windows 8.1 “Update 2.” (Copied from this blog)

How do you use the "Item Containing Start/End Date" in a Calendar?

Hi
I want to do a calendar where the days shown will be conditional to a certain interval. Now I though I could achieve that using the Item Containing Start Date of a calendar. But it doesn't seem to work. In the help it says :
Enter an item in the application which holds the start date of the calendar. The format of the date in this item must be YYYYMMDD.
This is what I did here
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=34530:1::::::
I have 3 fields. 2 for the Start Date and End Date and 1 for the "Date Item" parameter. Only the latter has an effect on the calendar display, the calendar only displays the month of the "Date Item" (in monthly mode).
Wether or not I check "Begin at Start of Interval", it doesn't affect the way those fields are affecting the Calendar.
So, how do we use that "Item Containing Start/End Date" parameter?

Hello,
does yout Script work when you begin with ?:
Start-Process powershell -Verb runAs

HT201401 i have a birthday showing in my calendar listed as an all day event and it is incorrect how can I delete it. When clicked on does not bring up the edit feature. The vodaphone shop thinks it has synced with my facebook app.

hello, the addons manager is exactly the right place to look for it. please try disabling the addons that are listed there one-by-one (a restart of the browser might be necessary after each step). maybe one of them is bundling this kind of adware.
